We have added many great features in Power Scripts for JIRA 4.0 (formerly known as JJUPIN), from the introduction of new features to the change of others. Although we have changed the internal architecture of our plugins suite, we kept, of course , kept the backward compatibility with SIL. As you will see, we have also the redesigned all the administration pages , making them aligned to the Atlassian guidelines.

Updated to work with Simple Issue Language 4.0.
As we have already said, we We maintained the backward compatibility with SIL. We have also updated Power Scripts for JIRA in order to let you use use all the goodies that SIL 4.0 brings.
Licensing
So far we used to disable our plugins when the license expired. In order to make sure that your JIRA installation is safe even if you forget to buy or change your license, in Power Scripts for JIRA 4.0 we let the runtime execute your scripts as configured, however, the configuration /and administration pages will be disabled.

We have incorporated the JJUPIN Agile support in Power Scripts for JIRA (formerly known as JJUPIN). This way, you can use all the routines from JIRA Agile without any other additional purchase. Also, the support we had for JIRA Service Desk has been incorporated , as well, in this Power Scripts for JIRA 4.0.

At the moment we have only little support for JSD. We know that you

and Live Fields support, and we'll try to do this in the near future.
Mail Handler
You can now process incoming mail using SIL scripts.
...
The new scheduler does now keep the jobs alive across JIRA restarts (as , like the SIL services did before).
SIL Listeners
Power Scripts for JIRA 4.0 comes with some even more versatile listeners. You may can now configure multiple listeners for the same event or multiple events mapped on the same listener and re-order the execution of the scripts.
SIL JQL
Long awaited, at least by our integration team, this JQL functionality opens wide new possibilities for users. Some Take a look at a few simple JQL examples are below:

As you may know, we already had a start up script mechanism in our older versions of Power Scripts for JIRA. Since Starting with version 4.0, we have also added a stop script, which , thanks to the integration with Power Scripts for JIRA JJupin Agile, can also be used with JIRA Agile routines. On the older versions , this was not possible , since because the start (and now stop) sequence would have Power Scripts for JIRA JJupin Agile plugin disabled before the script was executed.

These changes are explained in depth here. However, we'll review the main changes quickly here as well:
- Datasources - You can now define your databases directly in our dedicated page. The old mechanism (JNDI) will still work, but you will, for sure, find it more convenient to define the connection pool at a global level.
- Multiple LDAPs are supported now - We now support many LDAPs and have also designed a brand new configuration page for LDAP.
- We unified our thread pools. You will now be able to see live what scripts are running at the moment and you can adjust the parameters accordingly.
- We have extended the template support so you can now add SIL snippets into your email templates.
- Scripts can now be stored either on disk or in the database.
